And they are really very handsome birds.

European breakfasts plus being able to sleep under a fluffy quilt, not to mention creaking joints, put an end to camping for us.

Until recent events to our south we were much more discreet, only hanging the 2 small Canada luggage tags from our rear panniers. Somehow, though, we don't like being bullied and are now carrying as big a flag as we can.

Congratulations on getting onto the first train successfully! And I think you’re doing the right thing mailing your brick home. I can’t believe it isn’t salvageable.

Don't knock the wood pigeon! It's always an ever present bird that first welcomes us cycle tourers to Europe with its soothing cooing!

Ever since we gave up camping, the European hotel breakfast have us pretty spoiled. That'll get you going in the morning, Steve.

Ok, now it failed. Fortunately we found one at Cortes Ingles. Now the dead one is on my back in a backpack. Either we will mail it home, or be brave and dump it ($1500) in a garbage!

It's still a little cool and dull here, but gloves and kneeling pad - yeah!

So far so good. Everyone will hear the wailing and gnashing of teeth if it really craps out.

Don't know. We assume gopher purge is a local to you plant but we are neither familiar with it nor with its Latin name.
